Things You’ll Need:
- An item to search for on ebay
- Computer with internet access
Step1
Newly Listed - Buy it Now
- Sometimes you can find great buy it now prices and you can scoop them up quick when you search in the newly listed items
- Do a search for the item you are interested in
- Select Newly Listed from the drop down box - located above the auction listings
- Check the Buying Options box in the left hand column
- Select Buy It Now from the drop down box
- Click Show Items
- Start Shopping Here!
Step2
Shop Seller's Other Items
- When you find a great auction, check the seller's other listings. Sometimes they are cleaning out their children's gently used clothing and you can get a number of outfits from one seller, which greatly reduces your shipping costs!
- Be sure to ask if they combine shipping.
Step3
Shop EBay Stores
- There are a number of stores that specialize in Gymboree and other kid's clothing items and they usually have great shipping specials. Some will offer Free Shipping if you spend a certain dollar amount or a Flat Shipping for a certain number of purchases.
Step4
Best Offer
- I love this feature!
- A lot of sellers put a Best Offer feature on their listing which allows you to do just that, you can make an offer. For example, you finally found a Gymboree Strawberry Farm dress in a size 6! Yeah! But, the price is a little more than you are willing to spend. You can make an offer and if the seller accepts your offer, it's yours!
Step5
Sign up for Store Newsletters
-If you find a store that you really like, sign up for their store newsletter if they have one. You can get special perks like discounts or a heads up on sales.
